Will the Coronavirus Ever Be Eradicated or Will New Variants Continue to Emerge?

The global health community remains closely tracking the coronavirus, with various news outlets reporting differing perspectives on its future. While some organizations, like the WHO, claim that the pandemic is no longer a global health emergency, others highlight the ongoing spread of new variants.

The New York Times reported that new COVID variants are spreading but are not more dangerous than previous versions, while National Geographic suggests that the virus is likely to remain with us for a long time.

However, some critical perspectives suggest that the current understanding and narrative surrounding the coronavirus might be manipulated to push vaccination campaigns and create fear compliance.

Is the Coronavirus Simply a Propagandized Narrative?

The question of whether the coronavirus is real has been a point of contention. Some CDSS and health departments, after years of intermittent reporting and persistent reminders, started acknowledging the difficulties in proving its existence.

Many believe that the current narrative around the coronavirus is part of a propagandized agenda. The intention is to make vaccination appear as the only solution, instilling fear and compliance in the public. Critics argue that this narrative is part of a broader agenda aimed at economic and political control, suggesting connections with global initiatives such as Agenda 2030, the UN's goals, and other top-level organizations.

Can We Eradicate the Coronavirus?

While it is theoretically possible to eradicate a virus like the coronavirus, the practicalities make it highly unlikely. Other viruses, such as smallpox, have been successfully eradicated through vaccination efforts. However, the coronavirus likely won't be one of them.

Public health officials and researchers are more focused on improving preventive and management strategies. These strategies will evolve like flu seasons, with some years seeing more successful vaccine development and other years facing challenges due to the unpredictable nature of the virus.

The Nature of SARS-like Viruses

The coronavirus belongs to the same family as SARS and MERS, viruses known for their ability to mutate rapidly. This high mutation rate suggests that we can expect new variants to continue emerging in the future.

The Delta variant, which has emerged as a significant concern, defies the usual pattern where viral mutations often reduce the pathogen's infectivity. Instead, the Delta variant has shown increased transmissibility, making it essential to maintain preventive measures such as social distancing, hand washing, and mask-wearing, especially in areas with high economic activity.

Conclusion

While the coronavirus is unlikely to be eradicated, we can hope for continuous improvements in our ability to manage and mitigate its impact. As we learn more about the virus, we can develop more effective strategies to protect ourselves and others.

The near future may bring new variants and challenges, but with ongoing research and adaptation, we can emerge stronger and better prepared. It's important to stay informed, follow public health guidelines, and support continued scientific efforts to combat this ongoing challenge.
